Chapter 31

In California, at an abandoned railway hub, many adult men dressed in Middle Eastern clothes and armed with weapons gathered.

There were bonfires burning all around, and there were people patrolling and guarding the outside, making it look like a "military powerhouse."

At this time, a black business car tore through the darkness and drove slowly from a distance. But the strange thing is that this tightly guarded base did not stop this car, which looked out of place here, and allowed it to enter the interior of the base.

As the vehicles arrived at the hinterland, the defense became even tighter. After the car stopped, a black bodyguard wearing a body armor and holding a Stark Industries fully automatic rifle got out and opened the door for the big man in the back seat.

The person who got out of the car was none other than Tony's dear uncle, Obadiah.

"Welcome!" The person who spoke was a man with a scarred face. If Tony were here at this time, he would be able to easily recognize the identity of this man, the young leader of the Ten Rings Gang who kidnapped him.

And here is a temporary base they secretly established after smuggling into the United States.

Obadiah Shiran, who got off the car, walked towards the scarred man who welcomed him. Judging from the comfortable expression on his face, it was obvious that this was not the first time he had met this group of terrorists.

Arriving in front of the scar-faced man, Obadiah did not respond to his welcome, but instead stared at the scar on his face with a condescending smile as if sarcastically.

The scar-faced man did not show any timidity, pointing to his face and said: "This is the gift Tony Stark left for me!"

Hearing this, Obadiah's face became more sarcastic, "If you can kill him when it's time to kill him, then you won't lose your [face]."

Understanding the sarcasm of the other party's pun, the scar-faced man said angrily: "You just gave us such a small amount of money, and you expect us to help you kill a big shot."

However, Obadiah did not give him a chance to continue complaining. He pointed directly at the purpose of the trip without a trace of sympathy in his words, "Hit me to see that weapon."

"Come on, leave your bodyguard outside." The scar-faced man paused and agreed to the request.

They, the Ten Rings Gang, have had this suit for some time, but due to financial and cultural constraints, even with ready-made models and the drawings recorded by Tony at the time, the illiterate members of the Ten Rings Gang are still There is no way to replicate this suit.

In this case, we can only find a partner with culture, funds, and more importantly, ambition to achieve this goal. Once this plan is completed, they will not only have the most powerful force, but also receive a steady stream of money.

After some thought, they finally selected the right candidate for this partner, Obadiah Stane, an ambitious man who attempted to kill Tony Stark and seize his company's industry.

Their meeting tonight was to conclude this business.

Obadiah made a gesture to signal his bodyguards to stay outside, and then followed the scar-faced man into a simple tent.

He opened the curtain and as soon as he entered Tony's cave in Afghanistan, the Mark 1 handmade by Ethan and his colleagues came into view.

His eyes gleamed greedily, just like the eyes of cats at night. Even if it was a rough piece made by an illiterate member of the Ten Rings Gang, it would not prevent him from appreciating it as the most beautiful work of art in the world.

"He ran away, but he left us a little surprise." The scar-faced man introduced with some pride when he saw Obadiah's eyes.

"So this is his secret weapon to escape from the cave alone!" Obadiah asked, his eyes fixed on every part of Mark 1.

"This is just a preliminary product. Tony Stark has perfected its design and created a murderous masterpiece!

As long as a person has a few pieces of this equipment, he can rule Asia. And you long for Stark's throne. We all have a common enemy. "The scar-faced man expressed his huge inner ambition in a calm tone.

Obadiah looked away from Mark 1, turned to look at him, and signaled that the other party could continue speaking.

"We can continue to talk business, and I can give these designs to you as a gift! And in return, I hope you can build an army of Iron Warriors for me."

Obadiah didn't reply, just looked at him with a smile, then walked over and put his hand on his shoulder as if intimately.

And at some point, a small device appeared in his hand. He pressed the switch, and the device began to emit a high-frequency sound wave. Before the scar-faced man could react, his brain was congested and he completely lost his ability to move.

"This is the only gift you can get." Obadiah pointed to the soundproof earplugs in his ears, shook the ultrasound device in his hand, and showed a cruel smile.

"Technology - this is your eternal weakness in this world." As he spoke, Obadiah turned off the device and took off the soundproof earplugs in his ears, "But don't worry, the effect of this thing can only last 15 Minutes, this is only the slightest of your troubles..."

After speaking, Obadiah directly opened the curtain of the tent and walked out.

Outside the tent, Obadiah saw that all the guards of the Ten Rings Gang had been subdued by the bodyguards he had brought. There was no trace of surprise on Obadiah's face. It was obvious that this had been planned by him.

"Bring me the armor inside and clean up the mess. It's time for us to leave."

As soon as His words fell, click, click, click—with the sound of a series of bullets fired and the fire snakes swallowing the guns, the abandoned railway hub fell into silence again, and I don’t know how long it will be before it happens again. Someone comes here.

"Establish the 16th area under the Ark Reactor prototype. The task must be carried out secretly. Call our best engineers. I want you to help me make a prototype immediately.

In addition, keep an eye on Tony and Mark. Everything in the Stark Group must fall into my hands. Nothing can go wrong this time! "

Chapter 32

"So, what you are saying is that the unknown factor that calmed down the unrest in Gumila Town in the news was actually you!

You wore that steel suit and single-handedly defeated a company of terrorists! "

Pepper Pepper covered her mouth that was open in surprise with both hands in disbelief, "This is too dangerous, Mr. Stark, you must stop this willful behavior immediately. You still have Mark to take care of, and There are tens of thousands of Stark Industries employees who also depend on you for their lives. Think about how the last time you came back, your suit was full of bullet marks. What would these people do if something happened to you!?"

"Calm down, Pepper, calm down! Don't be so excited. Those bullet marks only look scary, but in fact they didn't cause any critical damage to the suit.

You also know that Mark and I have far more wisdom than ordinary people. The safety and reliability of the Mark 3 developed by combining the wisdom of the two of us is beyond doubt. "

Tony put his hands firmly on Pepper's shoulders, looked directly at her, and patiently comforted her.

"I'm worried about you, you know? You managed to escape from the hands of those villains, why would you put yourself in danger?"

"Perhaps this is the growth I gained from the kidnapping incident. It is precisely because I clearly understand the dangers I face that I developed the Mark 3 to protect myself, right?

And as long as I have your support behind me, I can maintain peace of mind even if I am in danger. "

Tony finally spoke out the golden words he carefully collected from the Internet at the most appropriate moment. Unsurprisingly, as soon as these words came out, the situation turned around instantly. Pepper lowered his head with a red face and stopped mentioning it. Something against Tony's adventure.

"Pepper, if you don't mind, I need you to do me a favor... I want you to go to my office, hack into the computer host, and find all the recent shipping lists." As he said that, Tony transferred an item to Passing it into Pepper's hand, "This is the password chip. You can easily hack in with it. The list may be in the main folder, or it may be hidden in the driver, in which case you will have to search for the smallest title."

"If I get the list back, what will you do with it?" Pepper was a little worried that Tony would do something dangerous again.

"Same as last time, they are dealing secretly, and I have to stop them. I have to find those weapons and destroy them."

"Tony, you know I am willing to do anything for you. But if you interfere with this matter, I can't help you." Pepper refused awkwardly.

"Okay, then this is your next task. It is the order given by me, Tony Stark, as the boss." Tony, the straight man of steel, appeared again, breaking the good atmosphere that was finally established before.

"Really? Then I resign." Pepper did not give in and threw the password chip on the table.

"You have been by my side all these years when I was making huge profits from destruction; but now when I want to protect those who are in danger because of me, you are leaving me?"

"You're going to get yourself killed, Tony! I don't want to get involved."

"Everyone should have a goal when living in this world. The Tony Stark in the past has died in the cave in Afghanistan due to the explosion, and the new Tony Stark needs a new goal. I don't have one. Crazy, Pepper. I just suddenly understood what I was supposed to do, and I knew it was the right thing to do."

Pepper didn't reply and silently picked up the password chip on the table, "You are also everything to me, you know."

…

In the Stark Group office building, today Pepper changed his usual time habits and showed up at the company half an hour early. And it can be seen from her nervous expression that things are indeed a little unusual.

Before arriving at Tony's office, she looked around and found that no one else had arrived yet. She quickly opened the door and walked in, then quickly closed the office door.

After arriving at the destination, Pepper didn't waste any time and hurriedly opened Tony's computer host, connected the password chip and started to search for the required information.

Following Tony's instructions, she first searched for information in the main folder, but found nothing after searching. Then she opened the computer's driver folder. It contained many missile drawings and information designed by Tony, but after some searching, a drawing of a giant steel armor attracted her attention. This design was obviously similar to the suit she had seen on Tony before. Concept but very different appearance.

"District 16? What on earth are you doing, Obadiah! Could it be that little Mark's previous guess was correct..."

Recalling that when Tony had just come back from danger, Mark once told her that she and Obadiah were the only ones in the entire company who knew about Tony's itinerary, so the traitor must be among them.

Now it's obvious that the answer is ready to come out, and a video found next confirms Pepper's suspicion.

In the video, Tony, who was tightly tied up and his ears were blocked, was sitting firmly in the C position, surrounded by a group of big men with hoods covering their faces and holding rifles. The leader held a manuscript in his hand and spoke in English with a Middle Eastern accent.

"...You didn't tell us that the person you wanted us to kill was the famous Tony Stark. As you saw Obadiah Stan, you will pay the price for your deception and lies, Tony. ·The price of Stark’s head generals has just increased..."

"Oh my god!" Pepper didn't expect this to be true. Tony's most beloved uncle actually wanted to kill him secretly.

When she saw this, she quickly transferred two important documents to the cryptographic chip, preparing to take them back and tell Tony the truth.

At this moment, the door to the office was opened, and the person who came was none other than Obadiah Stane, "Oh, Miss Pepper, I didn't expect you to show up here before work hours. It really surprised me. …”

Chapter 33

"I know you are in trouble right now, Pepper." Obadiah took a wine glass and came to Tony's wine cabinet in the office.

At this moment, looking at the slightly unnatural look on Pepper's face, Obadiah could already guess why she was here so early in the morning. But before it was truly confirmed that his disguise had been completely seen through, Obadiah still maintained his hypocritical face and maintained the gentlemanly demeanor he has performed all year round in every move.

But what he didn't know was that the greedy and ferocious eyes that could not be concealed under his decent etiquette had completely betrayed his heart.

Pepper adjusted her status, showed a professional smile, and observed the download progress of the data with her peripheral vision.

"Tony always has good stuff, doesn't he?" At this time, Obadiah took a bottle of Tony's collection of fine wine from the wine cabinet and poured himself a glass. Pepper seized this opportunity and took advantage of the other person's gaze to shift. , immediately picked up the newspaper on the computer table to cover the password chip on the host, and then turned on the screensaver to hide the transmission screen on the desktop.

When Obadiah filled the glass with wine and came to the desk, all he saw was Pepper, who was facing the computer screen saver without any action and could only continue his disguise.

“You have no idea how happy I was when Tony came home, as if I had brought him back to life!

But now I realize that Tony never really came back, did he? It saddens me that he left a part of himself in that cave. "

Pepper nervously looked at Obadiah sitting in front of him, very close to him, "Well... he is indeed a very complicated person."

As if feeling that he was too nervous, Pepper paused, showed a stiff smile and continued: "He has experienced a lot of dangers, but I believe he will get better."

Obadiah took a sip of wine and gave Pepper a meaningful look, "You are such a rare woman. Tony doesn't know how lucky he is."

"Thank you for the compliment, but I have to go." Pepper stood up, picked up the newspaper, and took the password chip back into his hand. After saying goodbye to Obadiah briefly, he looked at him left the office in his eyes.

After turning the corner, out of sight of Obadiah, Pepper looked at the password chip in his hand, breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly walked out of the company at a faster pace. On the other side, after seeing Pepper disappear, Obadiah immediately turned back to the computer and unlocked the screensaver.

When he saw the [Data download completed] prompt on the desktop, he finally confirmed that his secret had been discovered by Pepper. He leaned back on his seat angrily, but his eyes became firmer and fiercer. Now that the disguise has been exposed, you can't blame him for being ruthless next time!

"Ms. Potts, I'm afraid we have an appointment. Have you forgotten our agreement?" Just as Pepper hurried down to the lobby of the office building, she caught the attention of Coulson, who was attending the meeting as scheduled.

Thinking of Coulson's identity as an agent, Pepper, who realized that he was in danger at this time, also followed suit, "No, I didn't forget, you can come with me now! This meeting is guaranteed to be unforgettable for you..." "
